Bukurungu Trail
The Bukurungu Trail is amazing experience for everybody who loves real wild nature. You will see unbelievable sceneries with 4 amazing lakes (Mughuli, Bukurungu, Bujuku and Irene) on your way, crossing Mountain Rivers, waterfalls and enjoying raw nature. Trekking in the Rwenzori mountains for us was exhausting, but gave us a lot of satisfaction - incredible place, great friendly people. Undoubtedly, this is the best wildlife available on this continent. I would like to thank Rwenzori Ranges Guides and Escort Association for perfect service. It’s a company with a lot of knowledge and experience.

Rwenzori
We had a very unique experience at the Rwenzori. The new trail that you open allowed us to get to know the mountain as it really is. The staff was really amazing, we got the best treatment along the whole trip. The guides were very professional and the meals were excellent. We will never forget the mountains or the staff.

Everything about this trip went very well. All details were covered and the trip was well thought out. The trip exceeded our expectations. Our Cape town guide was exceptional! We would recommend African Welcome Safaris to everyone.

Amazing over and over again!
I went with this company on a Safari in October 2014 and it was the best thing I´ve ever done! We went to Sereneti, Ngorogoro, tarangire etc and they really work hard to make all of it a really good trip for us customers. The guides were excellent, they told and taught us about most of things and are were professional, helpful and relaxed, they also were very funny I might ad . The food and tents we slept in etc, had really high quality and I can´t explain in words how beautiful It is over there. The things you see and the things you feel.. Imagine being in disneys movie: "The Lion King".
They made this trip into something that I'l Bring with me for the rest of my life, memories.
Thanks Karibu Tanzania Safaris, tutaonana baadaye kaka!

Another brilliant safari experience
After having such a wonderful time on the northern circuit last year, I was excited to try it all over again this year in the wake of the wet season. Trekking the same route (Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro) that I did last November, I was again enchanted by the natural beauty of this magnificent country.
Of course, I'm not reviewing Tanzania, but Shadows of Africa played a huge part in ensuring I once again had a fantastic time. From the professionalism of our driver, Daniel to the seamless way in which everything was organised, it was a pleasure. Our accommodations were well chosen and the lunch box we were sent away with on day one was a veritable feast.
What I particularly loved was how hands on Natasa and the team were, and the flexibility they showed when we requested some small alterations to our itinerary such as adding in an early morning game drive in Ngorongoro or wanting to spend more time searching for the always elusive leopards.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Shadows of Africa to anybody wanting to put together their dream safari experience. They know their stuff, they customise every facet of your trip for you, and their service is second to none. Thanks again!

Amazing experience
Did the 4 day safari and visited 3 different parks. The safari itself was amazing, the animals were fantastic, and the guide would drive us around where other safari cars werent so that we were really isolated and it felt like a personalised safari. Slept in tents which wasn't too appealing and was quite expensive for what it was.

Perfect Safari Experience
I won't be able to write a review that speaks strongly enough about what a great safari experience we had with Makasa and our guide, Humphrey.
The great experience started with some last minute planning on my end - I hadn't committed to a set plan until about 1-2 weeks before we would be in Moshi, but Selma was understanding the entire way and helped me plan out a complex itinerary that involved meeting my sister in her study abroad location (a small village named Rhotia), a week-long safari, and driving my girlfriend separately back to JRO to catch a flight back to the States for an internship that had to cut her experience short. Even during the safari, Selma was flexible and responsive - could completely count on and trust her and Ngomi to ensure we had a great experience.
Our itinerary consisted of trip from Moshi to Rhotia, a day in Ngorongoro, 3 days in Serengeti, and then a drive back to Karatu/Rhotia and an excursion to Lake Manyara before being dropped off in Mto Wa Mbu to meet some other friends of my sister for the remainder of our trip. Humphrey was our guide and I cannot speak more highly of the experience we had with him. My sister is a zoology major who studied in Tanzania for four months under the guidance of well-renowned zoologists that led her on multiple game drives and she couldn't stop saying how impressed she was with Humphrey. He was the perfect combination of encyclopedic knowledge (impressive to my sister), a great personality (friendliest guy), and an extremely competent guide/driver/guardian over our 7 days. Not only was he easy to get along with, he was simply phenomenal at his job, spotting everything we wanted to see (Big 5, Ugly 5, tree-climbing lions, cheetahs eating their caught prey, multiple leopards,etc. and a ton of these viewed all alone without lines of safari trucks beside us), consistently navigating his way around like the professional he is (particularly in Serengeti), and sharing his knowledge in an unassuming and unobtrusive way. Even more impressive was his respect for the parks and people - never speeding down the dirt roads, being wary of going off the road, respecting the animals, etc. Couldn't have lucked out more with having Humphrey as our guide.
Obviously cliche, but it really was a "trip of a lifetime" - the care and attention provided, the wonderful lodges we stayed at (K-Lodge, Rhotia Valley Tented Lodge, Sopa Serengeti, Karatu Simba Lodge), the great food we had, and of course, the experience of being in a breathtaking setting with wildlife you only dream about seeing.
I can rave about our experience with Makasa and Humphrey to no end, but suffice it to say - this is money well spent and an operator well-picked. If you want flexibility, reasonable pricing, extremely competent guides and owners, top-notch service, and the ability to give back to the country you're a tourist in (all lodges have some conservation/giving back to the community benefit), you cannot go wrong with Makasa Safaris.
